This analysis uses Suburbs and Localities (SAL) boundaries, which can materially differ from Statistical Areas (SA2) even when sharing the same name.
SAL boundaries are defined by Australia Post and the Australian Bureau of Statistics to represent commonly-known suburb names used in postal addresses.
Statistical Areas (SA2) are designed for census data collection and may combine multiple suburbs or use different geographic boundaries. For comprehensive analysis, consider reviewing both boundary types if available.

Sales Detail
Wyoming has an estimated 10,033 residents, down from 10,111 at the 2021 Census. The population has thinned by an average 0.5% a year over five years, slower than 95% of areas nationally. That puts 1,405 residents on each square kilometre. Population is estimated from ABS Estimated Resident Population releases and GNAF address data, re-based from the 2021 Census and updated annually.
Detail
Analysis of ABS population updates for the wider region, alongside new addresses validated by AreaSearch since the Census, indicates the population of the suburb of Wyoming is approximately 10,033 as of May 2026. This represents a contraction of 78 people (0.8%) from the 2021 Census, which documented a population of 10,111 individuals. The shift is calculated from a resident population of 10,029, estimated by AreaSearch using the ABS June 2025 ERP release and 5 validated new addresses added since the Census date. This population level translates to a density ratio of 1,405 persons per square kilometer, which exceeds the average across national locations evaluated by AreaSearch.
Overseas migration was the primary driver of population gains in recent times, serving as the sole source of growth. AreaSearch implements ABS/Geoscience Australia projections for each SA2 region, published in 2022 with 2021 as the base year. For any SA2 regions lacking this coverage, AreaSearch uses the NSW State Government's SA2 projections from 2022 with 2021 as the base year. Age group growth rates from these datasets are applied to all locations for the years 2032 to 2041. Looking at future demographic shifts in the suburb of Wyoming, projections suggest a contraction in the overall population, with the cohort shrinking by 144 persons by 2041 under this approach. Conversely, expansion is anticipated within specific age groups, led by the 85 and over bracket, which is projected to expand by 321 people. More information is available in the age section.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
39 new dwellings have been approved in Wyoming over the past five years, an average of 7 a year. That is 0.8 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 7, broadly in line with that longer-run average. Figures come from ABS building approvals aggregated to this Suburb (SAL) boundary and are updated monthly as the ABS releases them.
Detail
According to AreaSearch analysis of ABS building approvals allocated from statistical area data, Wyoming averages about 7 new homes approved annually, reaching a total of 39 homes over the last 5 financial years. Thus far in FY-26, 7 approvals have been logged. As population has fallen recently, the incoming supply has likely matched demand, providing options for buyers, with new homes constructed at an average value of $268,000—below regional averages—indicating relatively affordable options for buyers. Furthermore, $2.2 million in commercial development approvals have been logged this financial year, highlighting the residential focus of the area.
Relative to Greater Sydney, Wyoming displays a lower level of development activity, sitting 80.0% below the regional average per person. This restricted new construction typically supports demand and valuations for existing properties. It also falls below national averages, indicating a mature market and highlighting potential planning constraints. New building trends show 88.0% detached homes and 12.0% townhouses or apartments, preserving the suburban character with a focus on detached homes that attract buyers seeking space. The area contains roughly 1544 people per dwelling approval, indicating an established housing market. Given that population projections indicate stability or decline, Wyoming is expected to experience less pressure on housing demand, which should benefit prospective buyers.

4,765 residents of Wyoming are employed, from a labour force of 4,982. Unemployment sits at 4.4%, with participation at 60.4%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.8% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 8,592, about 86% of the resident population, so more people leave the area for work than travel in. Unemployment and labour force come from ABS Small Area Labour Markets, updated quarterly; the industry and occupation profile is from the 2021 Census.
Detail
Wyoming is home to a skilled workforce with strong representation in essential services, an unemployment rate of 4.4%, and an estimated employment growth of 3.6% over the past year, according to AreaSearch statistical area aggregations. As of March 2026, there are 4,765 residents in employment, while the unemployment rate sits 0.2% higher than the Greater Sydney level of 4.1%, and labour force participation is much lower (60.4% versus Greater Sydney's 69.1%). Census data indicates a high proportion of residents, 30.8%, worked from home, though the influence of Covid-19 restrictions should be noted.
The primary employment sectors for residents are health care & social assistance, retail trade, and construction. The area displays a high concentration in health care & social assistance, with staffing levels at 1.4 times the regional average. Conversely, professional & technical roles are underrepresented, accounting for 6.6% of local employment compared to 11.5% regionally. The largely residential character of the area corresponds to limited local jobs, as seen in the comparison of the Census working population against resident numbers. Based on AreaSearch analysis of SALM and ABS data for the broader statistical areas, the year leading to March 2026 saw employment levels rise by 3.6% and the labour force expand by 3.5%, maintaining a relatively steady unemployment rate. In comparison, Greater Sydney saw employment rise by 1.9%, the labour force expand by 1.9%, and unemployment decrease slightly. National employment forecasts from Jobs and Skills Australia published in May-25 provide additional context for future demand trends in Wyoming. These five and ten-year projections have been mapped against the local industry profile to estimate growth patterns. While national employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, trends vary by sector. Applying these industry projections to the local workforce mix suggests employment should rise by 6.8% over five years and 14.2% over ten years (this represents a basic weighted extrapolation for illustrative purposes and does not incorporate local population forecasts).

How the numbers are built
Population
The Census provides the small-area baseline, aggregated from mesh blocks to this boundary. It is then re-based to the ABS Estimated Resident Population (June 2025 release), and new dwellings built since Census night are counted from address data — 5 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (10,111 at the 2021 Census → 10,033 now). Annual growth rates are compound (CAGR), not simple averages.
Age profile
Cohort shares are not raw Census counts. Every cohort is held as a pair — the Census baseline and a current estimate — and the split is re-based using ERP and state population projections, current to May 2026. Median age is the Census median plus modelled change since. Charts that show both are labelled "2021 Census vs Current Estimate".
Property sales
Sourced from the state valuation authority's sales register — current, not Census, and refreshed weekly. Medians are calculated from settled transactions in the period shown; periods with very low transaction counts are flagged or suppressed, because a handful of sales can move a median substantially.
Rents
Derived from state rental bond lodgement data, by dwelling type and bedroom count. Bonds are lodged at the start of a new tenancy, so this reflects new lettings, not the whole rented stock.
Development & infrastructure
Building approvals come from current ABS releases; development applications are collected from council and state planning portals; the infrastructure pipeline is compiled from Infrastructure Australia and local government sources. Applications are matched to this boundary by address or coordinates, so very recent lodgements may not yet appear.
Employment & income
Industry and occupation structure comes from the Census, but the headline labour-market indicators do not. Unemployment and labour force are derived from ABS Small Area Labour Markets (quarterly). The employment outlook applies Department of Employment forecasts for all 19 industry divisions to this area's own industry mix (the agency is now Jobs and Skills Australia), as does the Internet Vacancy Index used for job demand. Because it is weighted on industry composition alone, that outlook carries no allowance for local population growth — in fast-growing areas the real rise in local jobs will typically be higher. Income combines Census household income with ATO taxable-income statistics for FY 2023, indexed forward using the Wage Price Index.
Education, transport & amenities
School enrolments, ICSEA and performance come from ACARA's current release, not the Census. Public transport stops and service frequency are derived from GTFS timetable feeds published by state transport departments. Services and amenities are proximity and count scores built from provider directories, refreshed on their own cycle. The Census contributes only the travel-to-work and qualification measures.
Rankings and benchmarks. Where we rank this area, the comparison set is every area of the same boundary type — suburbs against suburbs, SA2s against SA2s. Benchmarks compare this area against its greater capital city region and the national figure for the same measure and period.
Limits worth knowing. Small areas carry larger error margins, and the ABS introduces small random adjustments to Census counts to protect confidentiality — so totals may not sum exactly. Estimates re-based from regional data describe the area's expected trajectory, not a direct count of it. Figures are indicative for research and are not financial, planning or valuation advice.
